America Bashers

America Bashers was the excerpt that I decided to read. I thought that it would be cool to see who exactly the Bashers were, and when i found out that they were citizens that were actually citizens of the U.S. i was appalled. If they have a problem with the U.S. then they have all the right to get out of here and go find a better country to live in. We don't need them. I felt that the author kind of went on and on about the different people. I enjoyed his rant on the My Lai Massacre. He was absolutely right when he said that Abu Ghraib prison situation was no where near as terrible as the My Lai Massacre. People are getting worked up over something that didn't really come close. In My Lai, the Americans murdered unarmed civilians, where as all they did at Abu Ghraib was make the Iraqians take their close off and lay on each other. Calm down people. They go and murder our soldiers and tape it so that we can see it and its worse when we just humiliate them a little. Go figure... we're supposed to take the high road right? Cause we're the good ol' U.S... we're in a war. You aren't supposed to be nice during a war. How else would you come out on top?
